abstract = "Mass transport within an organ is complex process which occurs through two different domains: networks of blood vessels and surrounding tissue. Consequently, development of a comprehensive transport model remains a challenge. In this paper we showed an application of a recently introduced multi-scale transport model [1, 2], where larger vessels are modeled by simple 1D finite elements. This model couples convective and diffusive transport within complex system consisted of capillaries and tissue, where connection between these fluid (capillaries) and solid (tissue) domains is accomplished by using fictitious 1D elements. In order to apply the developed model, a reconstruction procedure, consisted of: segmentation, skeletonization using augmented FMM method, and diameter recognition within indoor software, is processed. At the end, numerical simulations are performed in order to get the pressure and concentration distribution in the vessel network and surrounding tissue, showed by examples presented in the paper.",
